Renamed "DVD Author" to "Author" for broader disc production workflow.
Created foundation for complete authoring pipeline with three main tasks:
**Module Structure:**
- Tabbed interface with Chapters, Rip DVD/ISO, and Author Disc tabs
- Added authorChapter struct (timestamp, title, auto-detected flag)
- Added author module state fields (file, chapters, threshold, detecting)
**Chapters Tab (Basic UI):**
- File selection with video probing integration
- Scene detection sensitivity slider (0.1-0.9 threshold)
- Placeholder UI for chapter list and controls
- Add Chapter and Export Chapters buttons (placeholders)
- Foundation for FFmpeg scdet scene detection
**Rip DVD/ISO Tab:**
- Placeholder for high-quality disc extraction
- Will support lossless ripping (like FLAC from CD)
- Preserve all audio/subtitle tracks
**Author Disc Tab:**
- Placeholder for VIDEO_TS/ISO creation
- Will support burn-ready output, NTSC/PAL, menus
Changes:
- Modified main.go: Added authorChapter struct, author state fields,
showAuthorView(), buildAuthorView(), buildChaptersTab(),
buildRipTab(), buildAuthorDiscTab()
- Modified internal/modules/handlers.go: Renamed HandleDVDAuthor to
HandleAuthor with updated comment
- Updated DONE.md with Author module skeleton details
Next steps: Implement FFmpeg scene detection, chapter list UI,
and DVD/ISO ripping functionality.
Added advanced audio channel remixing features for videos with imbalanced
left/right audio channels (e.g., music in left ear, vocals in right ear).
New audio channel options using FFmpeg pan filter:
- Left to Stereo: Copy left channel to both speakers
- Right to Stereo: Copy right channel to both speakers
- Mix to Stereo: Downmix both channels together evenly
- Swap L/R: Swap left and right channels
Changes:
- Updated audioChannelsSelect dropdown with 8 options (was 4)
- Implemented pan filter logic in all 4 FFmpeg command builders:
- buildFFmpegCommandFromJob (main convert)
- DVD encoding function
- Convert command builder
- Snippet generation
- Removed unused "os" import from internal/convert/ffmpeg.go
- Updated DONE.md with audio channel remixing feature
The pan filter syntax allows precise channel routing:
- pan=stereo|c0=c0|c1=c0 (left to both)
- pan=stereo|c0=c1|c1=c1 (right to both)
- pan=stereo|c0=0.5*c0+0.5*c1|c1=0.5*c0+0.5*c1 (mix)
- pan=stereo|c0=c1|c1=c0 (swap)
- App is a work in progress, nothing is ever 'final'
- Changed size references to just state the values without 'final'
- More accurate and less presumptive
- Extract reset defaults logic to resetConvertDefaults function
- Add setTargetFileSize helper with syncing guard
- Add syncingTargetSize flag to prevent update loops
- Consolidate reset button handlers to call shared function
- Improves code organization and maintainability
UI Scaling Improvements:
- Reduce module tiles from 160x80 to 150x65
- Reduce title from 20 to 18
- Reduce queue tile from 140x50 to 120x40
- Reduce category labels to 12px
- Reduce padding from 8 to 4px
- Remove scrolling, everything fits in 800x600
Preset UX Improvements:
- Move "Manual" to bottom of all preset dropdowns
- Default bitrate preset: "2.5 Mbps - Medium Quality"
- Default target size: "100MB"
- Manual input fields hidden by default
- Show manual fields only when "Manual" selected
Encoding Preset Order:
- Reverse order: veryslow first, ultrafast last
- Better quality options now appear first
- Applied to both simple and advanced mode
UI Scaling:
- Reduce module tiles from 220x110 to 160x80
- Reduce title size from 28 to 20
- Reduce queue tile from 160x60 to 140x50 with smaller text
- Reduce section padding from 14 to 8 pixels
- Remove extra padding wrapper around tiles
Header Layout Improvements:
- Use border layout with title on left, controls on right
- Compact button labels: "☰ History" → "☰", "Run Benchmark" → "Benchmark"
- Eliminates wasted space in header
Queue Behavior Fix:
- "Clear Completed" always returns to main menu (not last module)
- "Clear All" always returns to main menu
- Prevents unwanted navigation to convert module after clearing
All changes work together to fit app within 800x600 default window
- Wrap module sections in NewVScroll container
- Use border layout with fixed header and scrollable content
- Allows all modules to be accessible within 800x600 window
- Header and controls remain visible while content scrolls
- Replace layout.NewHBoxLayout() with container.NewHBox() for header
- Replace layout.NewVBoxLayout() with container.NewVBox() for body
- Prevents unwanted stretching and improves alignment with rest of UI
- Elements now use natural sizing instead of filling available space
- Remove Show()/Hide() calls from Layout() method
- These methods must only be called from main UI thread
- Layout() can be called from any thread during resize/redraw
- Show/Hide logic remains in Refresh() which uses DoFromGoroutine
Fixes threading warnings from Fyne when stats bar updates
- Update LoadAppIcon() to search for PNG first (better Linux support)
- Add FyneApp.toml for icon metadata and Windows embedding
- Create VideoTools.desktop for Linux application launcher integration
- Change default window size from 1200x700 to 800x600
- Icon now appears in taskbar, app switcher, and Windows title bar
